Frame
The frame is made of high-quality plastic (PS) that exudes a modern essence with its smooth black finish, 5cm wide and 3cm thick. Its sharp, refined lines make it an ideal choice for contemporary art, especially complementing abstract works, minimalist styles or monochrome paintings . The textured frame is compatible with contemporary art or any artwork that makes a bold, outspoken statement. It is versatile enough to accommodate different sizes and can create complex contrast against bright colors or enhance the depth of dark tones. Designed to blend the past and the present, this frame is suitable for both classical and contemporary art forms.
A nude courtesan stands brazenly before us, her breasts and soft stomach are bare, her hair wrapped in an elaborate headdress. A tangle of limbs, breasts and buttocks fill the rest of the canvas, which measures 57 by 45 inches. Here are women selling their bodies, many of them faceless, reduced to their constituent anatomical parts. Picasso began his Women Of Algiers series
Within a month of the Nationalist uprising in Algeria, a French colony, in 1954. It was the beginning of the eight-year Algerian War of Independence.
Picasso painted the work as part of a 15-painting series (versions A through O) created in 1954 and 1955, inspired by Eugène Delacroix’s 1834 'Women of Algiers.'
May 11, 2015, Christie’s said 'Women of Algiers (Version O)' sold for $179,365,000.
